Neuroscience according to Janeane Garofalo
Whackjob website Ecorazzi interviews "actress" and "comedienne" Janeane Garofalo, who clues us in as to what's wrong with conservatives' brains.
The reason a person is a conservative republican is because something is wrong with them. Again, that’s science – that’s neuroscience. You cannot be well adjusted, open-minded, pluralistic, enlightened and be a republican. It’s counter-intuitive. And they revel in their anti-intellectualism. They revel in their cruelty. [F]irst you have to be an asshole and then comes the conservatism. You gotta be a dick to cleave onto their ideology.
Dr. Garofalo then uses Sarah Palin to further explain and explore the physiological deficiencies of the conservative mind, sounding ironically like one of those phrenologists who lectured on the difference between Aryan and Jewish skulls.
[Palin's behavior is] not even nutty . It really is neuroscience. I truly believe that it has something to do with their limbic brain. I really believe that some people’s limbic brain dominates more than others. Our limbic brain controls all our emotions and it causes us to be irrational. Our limbic brain goes into action when we’re ecstatic, frightened, when we’re having sex. I really believe that if a neuroscientist examined the brain of somebody who identified as a conservative, they would find it’s wired differently.
Yeaaaaah.
[crickets]
Ah, the tolerance and superior intellect of the Hollywood leftard.
Janeane, please, go back to being funny. I know that'll require a time machine and extensive tattoo removal, but you were funny once -- about twenty years ago. Now, you come off like a barking-at-the-moon, batshit-crazy loon.
But I love you in 24.
Ahem.

Thank you, Dr. Celebutard, for educating us on the less-evolved brain function of conservatives, thus giving us yet another example of an idiot speaking as if she actually knows something of what she speaks.
Read up on the limbic function, Dr. Celebutard, and you will see that it is the limbic function that The One has chosen to play on to promote his stimulus (catastrophe, crisis, this is the only answer, no delay for debate can be tolerated, etc ad nauseum). If The One thinks he must appeal to humanity's lower brain functions, what must he think of his adoring public?
Oh, and Dr. Celebutard, conservatives would never say that liberals are less evolved . . . Venal lying sociopathic spendthrift socialists, perhaps, but not less evolved humans.
